After claiming the Euro crown in 2016 for its first major international title, the side swept its rivals in the qualifiers and will head to the World Cup full of confidence. Leading the squad is one of the greatest players of all time: Cristiano Ronaldo. An astonishing portfolio of personal achievements that includes winning the Ballon D’Or as the world’s best player five times won’t be complete without a World Cup trophy and there is no doubt he will view this campaign as his ultimate challenge. Matched against traditional rivals Spain, even topping its group will be difficult but Portugal brings with it an accomplished side boasting the likes of Ricardo Quaresma, Bruno Alves and João Moutinho. Coach Fernando Santos has been the man responsible for guiding Portugal to its most successful era ever and he will know all too well just how important their group opener against Spain will be.

The pillars of the team provide a strong base, with names like Iniesta, Busquests, Alba, Pique, Ramos and Silva. However, it is players such as Isco – who performed so exceptionally during the qualifiers – Morata, Carvajal, Asensio and Thiago that are fueling the “La Roja” ranks with extra speed and precision following the retirement from the national team of David Villa, Xavi Hernandez and Fernando Torres. Spain’s renewal is being successfully driven by new coach Julen Lopetegui, with results under his tenure inviting supporters to be optimistic of returning to the pinnacle again. Lopetegui has a particularly strong track record guiding youthful squads, having previously taken the Spanish Under-19s and Under-21s national sides to success in the UEFA European Championships.
